What is the annual tuition of a Waldorf School?
Enrollment and tuition costs vary from school to school and are comparable to other private schools in the same geographic location that are not subsidized through church affiliations. In the United States, Waldorf schools are independent and are supported by tuition income, fees, and charitable contributions. Each school develops its financial aid assistance policies and determines the amount of tuition assistance it can offer.
This will vary significantly from school to school, but in the United States, tuition fees seem to range from $3500 to $8000, with $5500 being a fairly representative amount. Most Waldorf schools have active tuition assistance programs and many offer “sibling discounts”. Some have a stated principle that they will not deny a child a Waldorf education based strictly on financial considerations.

There now also are a number of public Waldorf charter schools, that don’t charge tuition.
